Cell Structures

?
Cell Structures - Nucleus
The nucleus controls cell activities and contains DNA (DNA carries genetic information).
1 of 9
Cell Structures - Cytoplasm
The Cytoplasm is the site of all the chemical reactions in the cell.
2 of 9
Cell Structure - Cell Membrane
The Cell Membrane is made of phospholipids & proteins. It is selectively permeable= controls substances entering. and leaving cells.
3 of 9
Cell Structure - Mitochondria
Mitochondria is the site of aerobic respiration (producing ATP)
4 of 9
Cell Structure - Ribosome
The ribosome is the site of protein synthesis.
5 of 9
Cell Structure - Cell Wall
The cell wall provides support & is made of cellulose in plant cells but different chemicals in bacterial & fungal
6 of 9
Cell Structure - Chloroplasts
Chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis, containing chlorophyll (producing food for plants)
7 of 9
Cell Structure - Plasmids
Small circular DNA
